Copperfield

Copperfield is a development of the Friendswood Development Company. Friendswood purchased the land in the late-1970s, intending to build a place where residents could live peacefully and enjoy their surroundings. Home development began almost immediately and continued until 2003, when the seventh village, Copperfield Place Village, was completed.

The quality of local schools is a factor many families consider when deciding where to buy their next home. For Copperfield, this is another of the community’s selling points. Several schools in the area have been recognized with the national Blue Ribbon School of Excellence award. These include Owens Elementary, Fiest Elementary, Lowery Elementary, Labay Middle School, Cypress Falls High School and Langham Creek High School. Given that the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District has 60 schools in total, it’s quite an accomplishment that almost all of the Copperfield area schools have been recognized for their performance.
